Drehlis

Drehlis is a rundown port town located on the northwest peninsula of Valethorn. The weather here is bone-chillingly cold most of the year with frequent snow storms. The bay winds keep the town damp and near freezing even during some of the warmer times of the year. The town is quiet and few people can be seen out on the streets. The sounds of port bells can be heard coming from the bay to the southwest as well as seagulls and sea lions. The salty smell of the frozen ocean breeze permeates the entire town and becomes stronger with every gust of wind. The buildings and other structures are made from wood and stone, with many of the buildings being multiple stories tall. The signposts on buildings creak as they sway in the wind along their metal chains.

History

Drehlis was once a large and prosperous city filled with citizens of all different races and types as it was the major port for Valethorn. The docks of Drehlis used to serve as a hub of trade and immigration to Valethorn, attracting merchants and travelers from all across Iora. However, the construction of the Valethorn Docks by one of the guild states of Azora'Xel was a small disturbance to Drehlis's prosperity.

Geography

Drehlis is located just south of a massive ravine, that acts as a natural defense, and along the coast of the northern bay of Valethorn. The rest of the area is mostly icy tundra with sparse plant and animal life.
